=== The Holy Spirit's Purpose (02:59) ===

[00:00:00]  Well, you know what's happened, Jim, is in so many of what we call charismatic churches, they have left out the Holy Spirit.
[00:00:10]  Yes.
[00:00:12]  And Jesus said in John, he said, when I go to heaven, I'm asking the Father God to leave the Holy Spirit here for you.
[00:00:22]  And the Father God did.
[00:00:24]  And then Jesus went to the right hand of the Father, and the Holy Spirit stayed here on the earth for us, the believer.
[00:00:33]  Why is that?
[00:00:34]  So that we could walk out our salvation according to how God had planned.
[00:00:41]  Because God does not do anything without purpose.
[00:00:44]  He is a purposeful God.
[00:00:47]  And every one of us that have come into the kingdom have a purpose.
[00:00:51]  Even those in the world that don't know him yet, he has a purpose for them.
[00:00:57]  He is very purposeful.
[00:00:59]  And we have to find our purpose and walk in it as the best we can with what we understand in love.
[00:01:08]  But the Holy Spirit is what helps us continue in that.
[00:01:14]  Because the word said, and Jesus said, the Holy Spirit will bring to your remembrance all things that you have heard.
[00:01:23]  So what's the key?
[00:01:26]  Learning.
[00:01:27]  Learning.
[00:01:27]  Learning is the key.
[00:01:29]  Study to show yourself.
[00:01:30]  Study to show yourself approved.
[00:01:32]  So we must study the word.
[00:01:35]  We must listen.
[00:01:36]  Pray in tongues.
[00:01:37]  Pray in the Holy Ghost.
[00:01:39]  Listen to the Holy Spirit.
[00:01:41]  He's here for us.
[00:01:42]  Yes, he is.
[00:01:43]  And he's always speaking whether we hear him or not or listen to him.
[00:01:48]  We get so busy with life, we don't listen.
[00:01:50]  It's true.
[00:01:52]  So what we have to understand, that I am alive unto God.
[00:01:56]  My spirit, man, is the new me.
[00:01:59]  That's who I am.
[00:02:00]  That's why I need to live from the inside out because that's who I am.
[00:02:06]  And in living from the inside out, then I'm going to show you the love of God.
[00:02:10]  I'm going to give you the truth of the word and I'm going to flow in the Holy Spirit.
[00:02:14]  What does that mean?
[00:02:15]  That means if God puts someone in my path that I need to minister to, then I'm full of the Holy Spirit.
[00:02:21]  I can hear him and minister to them effectively, and they are changed.
[00:02:26]  Praise.
[00:02:27]  And that's how we need to be living every day.
[00:02:31]  The Holy Spirit is not just for church services.
[00:02:34]  That's right.
[00:02:35]  The Holy Spirit is not just for church services.
[00:02:38]  I want to say it again.
[00:02:39]  The Holy Spirit is for us to live fully according to how God intended every day.
[00:02:46]  Every day.
[00:02:48]  But we have to build a relationship with him.
[00:02:51]  We have to know him.
[00:02:52]  We have to know his voice.
[00:02:55]  And in knowing his voice, then there's that security of we don't have to think, is that you, God?
